Chapter Seventy-Three: The Intricate Factions
"Huh...... I don't have to think about Sa, two days ago I heard that you are going to stay in our 126th Division, I was very excited, this time the division decided to transfer troops to expand to you, I didn't say a word and reported it, for this, our regiment commander almost had to turn his face with me. Wu Guowei said with a smile to Fu Zhiyong.
"Haha......" The other officers immediately laughed when they heard Wu Guowei's words, and the originally somewhat serious atmosphere was immediately relieved a lot.
"Wu Guowei, why are you following me? Is it because you put your battalion at the forefront, and you are afraid that the casualties of the troops will be too great? Fu Zhiyong looked at Wu Guowei and asked with a smile.
"What a hammer is afraid! I tell you that Commander Fu, my Wu Guowei didn't come here because he was greedy for life and afraid of death, I wanted to take my soldiers and children to follow Commander Fu to learn his skills and kill more little devils on the battlefield, of course, if he made a meritorious service...... Isn't there a medal to take......" Wu Guowei immediately put on a straight face when he heard Fu Zhiyong's words, but in the end, he was a little embarrassed and laughed.
Having said that, these Sichuan legion soldiers went out of Sichuan to resist Japan and fight little devils, not only for the sake of the country and national righteousness, after all, these things are indeed too profound for ordinary soldiers who have no culture, most of them rely on the blood of men in order to win glory on the faces of their Sichuan fathers, and they also went out of Sichuan to participate in the War of Resistance after being promoted and making a fortune.
What does it mean to return home? It is definitely not possible to be an official alone, because there are more than 3 million people in the Sichuan army who have gone out of Sichuan to resist the Japanese in several batches, and there are very few of these people who can become officers, so in addition to promotion, it can only be exchanged for military merits, just like those soldiers under Fu Zhiyong, although they are only soldiers, but the medals they get are their passports to return to their hometowns, with medals, then you can go sideways in your hometown in Sichuan, to ensure that everyone does not look down on you, Everyone will give you a thumbs up and say 'big hero', just for these simple three words, millions of soldiers and tens of millions of men in Sichuan joined the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War without hesitation, as for how many people can really return to their hometowns in the end.
"That's right! Battalion Commander Wu said yes, we came to Commander Fu's regiment to fight for fame. "My man in Sichuan has no ghost ...... who is afraid of death" "Yes, we are desperate to return to our hometown after having a medal, so that I can be worthy of my old father and mother." "That is, we came out of Sichuan and ran most of China, if we don't get any credit, then I really can't afford to lose this person, and I don't have to face back to Sichuan again in this life." Hearing Wu Guowei say this, the other officers of the Sichuan Army did not laugh together, but each looked deeply impressed, obviously Wu Guowei said this to their hearts.
"Okay, that's right, these words you said will be uplifted when you hear it, as long as you follow me Fu Zhiyong to lead the troops to fight devils well, I guarantee that each of you will have a medal to take, but I will say ugly things in front, if anyone dares not to listen to my orders and commands, even if I win, not only will I not give him a medal, but I will shoot him, do you understand!" Fu Zhiyong slapped the table hard and praised loudly, but in the end, he changed his words and added sharply.
"Understood...... Sir! More than a dozen officers of the Sichuan Army immediately replied loudly, but then they realized that something seemed to be missing, and hurriedly added a sentence of 'sir' at the end, because this is the rule that Fu Zhiyong just set, if they forget one in a blink of an eye, it is estimated that they will not be promoted in their lives......
Because Wu Guowei set an example, the officers of the other Sichuan Legion also stood up one by one and introduced themselves briefly, Fu Zhiyong also smiled at them one by one and nodded, secretly remembering the appearance and names of these people in his heart, after all, these people will be the leading officers under him in the future, if you don't know more, then you don't have to fight this battle, and you can go home and pick up your children.
After this period of conversation, Fu Zhiyong also has some basic understanding of the Sichuan Army officers in front of him, there are a total of thirteen Sichuan Army officers who came to report this time, among which the major battalion commander is only Wu Guowei, this is still his own dead face and the division headquarters to apply for transfer, otherwise the 211 Regiment will never let go, and his right-hand man will change jobs, which will never agree to whoever is the commander of the 211 Regiment.
Among the four captains and company commanders, except for Yan Fugui, who is from the 211th Regiment of the 126th Division, the other three are from the new 9th Division of the 95th Army, the new 17th Division directly under the 28th Group Army, and the new 18th Division.
These three divisions are all Sichuan Army divisions composed of the Sichuan Army, and the new 28th Division of the non-Sichuan system directly under the 28th Group Army did not let them draw troops to replenish it, after all, what is to be formed now is the elite regiment of the Sichuan Army, if the non-Sichuan troops are integrated into it, then this component will be too complicated, and it will not be convenient for the Sichuan Army to control Fu Zhiyong's new regiment in the future.
And the 24th Army and the 56th Army of the Sichuan Department did not send troops over, that is, the selfishness of Huang Yin, the commander of the 95th Army, this elite regiment belongs to his 95th Army, which would be strange if the other two armies could be intervened.
The lieutenant company is also from the new 17th Division, but he is not from the same regiment as the captain and company commander of the new 17th Division.
There are a total of seven platoon commanders with the rank of second lieutenant, all of whom are from any division, but they are all from different regiments.
Although the group army ordered several divisions to transfer elite officers and soldiers to Fu Zhiyong, the newly formed 1st Regiment, which division really carried out the order, and a large part of the elite soldiers under his command were withdrawn, not to mention that this fierce general who led the troops to fight said that he could not let people go.
It is already good for each division to send a company commander or platoon commander over, as long as there are officers who can restrain the elite soldiers of the headquarters, according to the ideas of the division commanders, they do not want to send these junior officers, but if they do not send their henchmen to lead the team, they are afraid that their elite soldiers will be completely destroyed by the 126th Division. After all, this newly formed 1st Regiment is now a piece of fragrant bread, and if you don't intervene in it, you will not be reconciled, and it will be even more regretful if you get out of control, so this kind of chaotic situation will occur in the personnel transfer of officers in the unit.
This phenomenon is actually very common in the national army at this time, after all, each department has its own faction, and they must maintain close relations with each other and check and balance each other in secret, racking their brains to fight for their own maximum interests, which is why during the war with the Japanese army, there will be troops in order to preserve their strength and watch friendly troops being eaten and do not send troops to rescue.
I don't know if Lao Jiang didn't take this situation into account, or because he was unable to change it, he deliberately did it, after all, the warlords in various places are also the targets of the forces that Lao Jiang wants to eliminate, and the warlords make each other stumble and consume it, which is estimated to be a situation that Lao Jiang is very happy to see, but the injury is still the loss of China's own military strength.
Although Fu Zhiyong's official rank is not high, he is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves in Nanjing City, how can he not know the thoughts of these miscellaneous army generals, so since he started to reorganize the team, he deliberately let Chen San disrupt all the troops, and then use these Sichuan Army officers, so as to ensure the ability to control the troops, and also not to offend those division-level senior generals.
Fu Zhiyong is the commander of the new 1st regiment, and he can't demote other people's posts for no reason for the newly arrived officers, but the deployment of some big-headed soldiers is still very calculated, even if the commander-in-chief of the 28th Group Army came to ask about this matter, it is also okay to take Fu Zhiyong, after all, the army was formed by his order, and Fu Zhiyong, the regiment commander, was also appointed by his order, and the soldiers were transferred by his order, as for how to use these people, he really can't control it, that is, Fu Zhiyong let them go to the toilet every day.
"Tell me all about your situation." After Fu Zhiyong finished chatting with the officers of the Sichuan Army, he asked them to go back and pack up and rest, and after dinner, Fu Zhiyong sent someone to call Zhang Weidong, Liao Peng and others over to have a temporary meeting.
"Let me start with it, there are a total of 2,623 recruits to report today, including three infantry battalions with 650 people, one baggage company with 150 people, one engineer company with 150 people, one cart transport company with 150 people, one unarmed supplementary company with 150 people, and 73 other personnel for the cooking squad directly under each company, the commander of each company and battalion and other auxiliary arms. There are no surveyors, and they can't even find a decent paperwork, and the level of the paperwork sent over is not as good as Zhang Dali's. Liao Peng was the first to report.
"Well, since we stayed in the miscellaneous unit of the Sichuan Army, it is already good to have soldiers, and we can still deal with those technical arms on our side, but this communication is a big problem, but this patchwork is really almost full, and there is only a light artillery battalion composed of a machine gun company and an artillery company." Fu Zhiyong nodded and said after summing it up.
Fu Zhiyong is still quite satisfied with this soldier's allocation, although there is also a shortage of more than 300 soldiers and 1,500 reserve supplementary soldiers, but this is already very rare for the Sichuan Legion, which lacks a major general, after all, he still has nearly a company of troops in his hands, and it is basically full of troops if he puts it together, and there is really no shortage of talents here for those technical arms Fu Zhiyong, there are Chinese medical officers, and there are two Japanese, although no one among them is good at maintenance technicians, But they are still very good at this daily maintenance of guns, and they usually pay more attention to the maintenance of weapons, as for surveyors and clerks, it is not a problem, Zhang Weidong and Liao Peng They can be more than competent.
